At 1030P, it averaged 16.00 million viewers. While Cleveland fans were joyous for their basketball team, San Francisco celebrated the no-hitter by Giant’s Chris Heston pitched against the New York Mets.(https://www.facebook.com/Overtheshouldermlb) Note: Due to the nature of live sports coverage, ABC’s ratings should be considered tentative and are likely to be adjusted in the finals.
